Central midfielder with a good physical profile, tall (194 cm), physically strong and with a long stride. Technically advanced, he is refined in ball control, excelling in short dribbling to escape tight spaces and hiding the ball well when under pressure from the opponent. He demonstrates the ability to carry the play through controlled dribbling, gaining meters and reaching the finishing zones, where he demonstrates a good mid-range shot. Demonstrates good decision-making in his actions and assertiveness and quality in passing, particularly in long passes to vary the center of play when necessary. He has spatial awareness, finding open space to receive, dropping low to add quality to the team's build-up phase, and manages the rhythm of the game, pausing or accelerating when necessary. Defensively, he demonstrates good timing in tackling, which allows him to regain possession repeatedly and effectively close spaces. He reads the game well, has a wide range of action, and is strong in ground duels and aerial play. Intelligent athlete, who reveals good vision of the game and demonstrates leadership characteristics. His weakness lies in his tendency to press high up the pitch, leaving space in behind for opponents to exploit, especially when playing as a defensive midfielder. A player with potential who plays for Tromso in the Norwegian first division and is a regular presence in the Norwegian youth teams. He has increasingly demonstrated impressive performances, and with his profile, I see him as having the skills to join a club in the top 5 leagues to develop his game and skills.
